Each week, The Pundit skewers something egregious and/or ridiculous and awards the Wet Teabag for the upcoming week. Past awardees have been "Political Correctness", the (so-called) "Green" Movement, and the U.S. Treasury Department. The winner(s) (yes, there are 2 this time!) for the week of September 5th:
The Reverend Al Sharpton and
The "MM", i.e. "Mainstream Media"
The Pundit is embarrassed to admit that she became so incensed with the Reverend Al's conversation with Bill O'Reilly this past week that she found herself literally screaming at the top of her lungs at the TV set. They of course were discussing the Glenn Beck 8/28 Rally in Washington (which The Pundit regrets she was unable to attend), with Reverend Al making the most ludicrous statements he's probably ever made. It ran the gamut from pulling the race card (as he almost ALWAYS does...why would The Pundit, or any other reasonably intelligent person, be surprised?) to accusing Glenn of "co-opting" Martin Luther King's philosophy to insinuating that most of the rally participants were just a bunch of ignorant rednecks. Then The Pundit hit on a theory - she thinks perhaps Reverend Al, more than anything, was really just jealous that Dr. King's niece, Alveda King, spoke at Glenn's rally and NOT at his. That of course is a simplistic way of looking at it, but nonetheless, it was no doubt a factor. And then there's the MM's idiotic reportage of the number of attendees at the Beck rally - almost a rerun of their likewise idiotic reportage of the number that attended last year's 9/12 rally (which The Pundit and her hubby DID attend). So as not to publicize just how many Americans attended these rallies, they again rely on their stock phrase, "tens of thousands" . FYI, folks - 9/12/09's official number was over ONE MILLION, and Glenn's 8/28 rally last weekend has been estimated at 700,000. Why are these people so scared to report the truth? Oh, I forgot...maybe because they're biased against anything even remotely conservative???
